All of the cards in the July 2025 Paper Pumpkin Kit were really adorable. Something about strawberries always makes me grin. Take a look at the cards I made from the kit following the instructions: I did notice a strawberry stamp in the included stamp set that was not used on the cards. So I…
Here is a quick sketch for you to get crafting with! Some circles and banners are all you need. I made this sample using a card base from the April Paper Pumpkin kit and the Around it All Dies: What can you make with this sketch? Share your creations with me – I would love…
The August 2024 Pumpkin Paper was really run to put together (and it was all birthday cards – which I always need!) Take a look at them: They are certainly gorgeous – those colors are great. Here is an alternative I made using the extra pieces I had left over –
Here is another quick alternative card using elements from Stampin’ Up!’s December 2023 Paper Pumpkin kit. The only thing I added was a Basic White card base. I cut one of the card bases from the kit into a few smaller strips (2 are 1/2″ x 5 1/2″ and the other third is 3/8″ x…

The fun-fold-full (is that a word?) August Paper Pumpkin had a lot of really cute cards – check them out: The cards all involved some ‘step’ type of folding that gave them some nice depth. When I saw the beachy theme and the sentiments in the included stamp set, I went to the Waves of…
Yesterday’s alternative did not use the Countryside Corner Dies (which really went so well with the kit): But today’s alternative does use it!!
